Liam's selected read at a BigHouse show`
This excerpt (click to listen) is a clip from the last really big show we had here at the BigHouse. I was recording the bands that night and Liam came over to keep me company, He would usually come in, sit down next to me huddled away in the back corner with all of my gear, and just kinda bask in the fact that we were documenting and capturing what was going on. This night though he sat there for a little while and then asked me if he could go up and read something between the Buffalo Bangers and the headliner Reptar, I said, "sure" and just had him get the okay from the bands, He had a book that he was reading at the time about Little 5 points during the 70's and decided he wanted to get up there and read an excerpt from it. He was so excited, no surprise, one of the many things that made Liam so great is that you could always tell when he was excited about something which was non-stop all the time in ever single succulent moment. So, he got up there and read, I was getting up to kinda take a break and thought,"hit record dummy, that's your brother, he will want a copy", so I did, and I am so glad I did. It kinda comes in a little late because I seriously was not going to record it since my computer kept saying I had limited memory, (it's completely broken now :-p). You will hear the banter of people and general silly stuff shouted during Liam's reading but don't worry they all loved it, and Liam just wanted it to kinda be something happening in the background, we actually talked about that. I hope all of you are keeping Liam in your thoughts daily and keeping his message strong at heart, I know I am, and if you guys ever need to stop by the house or anything to visit the bus or just for family support or whatever just let us know. Peace, love, and unity.
